I had COVID back in May 2021 and was in quarantine. Things were normal until late August when I started having a cold and got treated with antibiotics. After finishing the antibiotics, I noticed this slight pain on the left side of my chest while breathing deeply, as well as pain in my left hand. It's not sharp anymore, just a constant feeling. My chest X-ray came back normal, but the ECG showed Sinus Tachycardia, and sometimes my heart rate spikes. I'm 26, recently quit smoking, and I'm worried if this could be something like COPD or lung cancer. I can hold my breath for over a minute and can exhale in about 15 seconds, so I'm not breathless. But I'm really anxious, my hands and feet get sweaty, and there's this skin issue on my lower foot which makes me think about hyperthyroidism. Could you help me understand what's going on? I'm seriously worried.

View allIs it a big deal that my TMT showed significant ST depression of 0.1mm in leads V4-V6 at peak exercise but didn't persist in recovery? The test said mildly positive for RMI, and I reached my target heart rate. I did Bruce stage 3 for about 8.09 minutes. My blood pressure is normal resting at 12080 and after exercise, it was 14080. I'm not diabetic. My METs were 10.2. Should I be worried about this? Could it be treated at this stage? Do I need to go for an angiography, and if I do, how soon should it be done?

I've been monitoring my blood pressure daily for the past month, and it usually fluctuates between 95 to 105, with 100 over 70 being quite common. I'm a bit concerned if this is considered normal for my age. What might be causing these readings, and should I be worried about them not going above 105?
Your blood pressure readings of 10070 with fluctuations between 95 to 105 are considered low but generally not concerning if you are not experiencing any symptoms. However, it is important to monitor your blood pressure regularly and consult with a healthcare professional for a proper evaluation. The fluctuation in blood pressure could be due to various factors such as dehydration, stress, lack of physical activity, certain medications, or underlying health conditions. To help maintain a stable blood pressure, you can focus on staying well-hydrated, managing stress through relaxation techniques, incorporating regular exercise into your routine, and ensuring a balanced diet. If you experience any symptoms such as dizziness, lightheadedness, or fainting, it is important to seek medical advice promptly.

I'm dealing with some chest pain and recently found out my blood pressure's been high at 14090 for the past two weeks, plus I've got high cholesterol. My doctor prescribed Rosuvas 10mg for the cholesterol but didn't give me anything for the blood pressure. Is it okay if I take EMBETA XR 50 along with Rosuvas just for a few days to manage the BP?
It is not advisable to take EMBETA XR 50 (Metoprolol) without consulting your doctor, especially since you have high blood pressure. Metoprolol is a beta-blocker that helps lower blood pressure and heart rate. It is important to have your blood pressure monitored regularly while taking this medication. If your doctor did not prescribe a blood pressure medication initially, it is best to follow up with them to discuss the need for adding EMBETA XR 50 to your current treatment plan.
